Comments about Drill Master Portable Pocket Hole Jig Kit:

Although I have owned a Single Kreg Jig for over 12 years I really wanted the newer one as the one I have is difficult to work with.
I had even put it on a couple of wish lists,but the price kept me from ordering it
Having ordered Many tools both from your catalogs and your stores I was always impressed that you had Good tools at reasonable prices for over 20+ year's

This is a Home Run it setup very easy and after mounting it to a board it has been used to build 2 Toy Chests for My Grandsons.

If you need a Pocket hole jig or just want one Buy this one.

I would not look further for a better unit. It would be good to mount it on a piece of 5/8 plywood, put small pieces of wood about 5" each side of the jig to keep work level.

The pocket hole jig from Harbor Freight is a pretty good investment if you plan on joining two pieces of wood at any point in the future. This jig is well worth the price since it's made well and is of high quality. It's made entirely of metal and not plastic like the other popular brand on the market. The other company gives you a free bit and a separate portable piece, but I still couldn't get past how much plastic they used in their product. The HF version can be used as a portable jig as well by using the included extra bracket.

I fastened mine to a piece of plywood, so I can take it just about anywhere. Now here's one suggestion and one caution. Simple but effective: My suggestion for when the unit is in use, put a couple pieces of tape on the holes that you're not using. This will eliminate the possibility of accidentally inserting the drill bit into the incorrect holes.

My caution: Immediately after opening the box, take the screws that comes with the unit and place then in the trash. It's recommended that no pre-drilling is needed, but if you plan to use the provided screws, you would be better off pre-drilling the holes of the second piece of wood. Stop by your non orange hardware store and pick up a boxes of "pocket hole screws". Get the ones that use the square bits. Those screws are TRULY self tapping and goes in like butter.

Overall, I will absolutely recommend buying this jig.

I was in the market for a K jig and came across this pocket hole jig at HF at half the cost. After looking at the reviews I went and bought it. The tip of the drill bit broke off while drilling the second hole. HF exchanged it for me and the new jig was good to go. I drilled about 75 holes over the next couple hours with absolutely no problems. This jig has more features and flexibility than the K jig, better construction, and much better price. This is a great product. The adjustable drill guides give you plenty of flexibility. I found that drilling at high speed gives you a cleaner hole than drilling at slower speeds.

I bought this to build a toddler bed for my 14 month old. I was thinking about the name brand Kreg Jig. I was worried about the Kreg being made from molded plastic. I bought this instead and love it. The project is complete and this jig worked great. Great design and made very well for a HF tool. I highly recommend this if you need a pocket hole jig.

I'm making Japanese Shoji panels and started to use pocket holes for the frames as mortise and tenon just takes too long. I will use it on the kitchen cabinets too. This is a time saver but I go back to M&T on the good stuff.

For the money this is a very nice tool and will last a long time! Good anodized alum. base and drill slider parts. Very easy to use and set up!

I purchased this after having the Kreg version which is some form of plastic. This jig is solid and will last a long time. The price I paid for this was less than for the Kreg also. I think the Kreg has some nice features, but the price is not what I wanted to pay. I'm happy with the Harbor Freight version of this tool.
